Hi - I'm a grade 5 teacher at Woodford Primary School, a rural school situated on the banks of the Merri River about 10km north of Warrnambool. I team teach with the grade 6 teacher and together we try to take our students through a curriculum based in the real world, where learning is attached to their experiences in and out of the classroom.

Before becoming a teacher I studied Engineering and worked for Shell. Quite a different career path to most other Primary Teachers I've come across. It's meant that I have a particular focus on mathematics, science, technology and links to business and the community.
